6.1 Output Adjustment Controls
Manual series pump controls are not equipped with pressure
control.
1. Pressure Control Adjustment (if equipped): Pressure control
provides the adjustment of the pump’s pressure capability and
power consumption, reducing heat, pipe shock and pulsation
while increasing pump life. See Section 7.0 after priming for
proper adjustment settings.
2. Speed Adjustment (Upper Knob) (if equipped): Speed control
provides adjustment of the percent of maximum strokes per
minute. Turning this knob clockwise increases stroke frequency
(speed).
3. Stroke Adjustment (Lower Knob): Stroke control provides
adjustment of the percent maximum of solution discharged
during each pump actuation. Turning this knob clockwise
increases solution displacement.
